5.General Business and Reports
5.1 Oxford County Planning Memo
The Boundary Adjustment Committee was joined by Paul Michiels and Eric
Gilbert to discuss the estimated remaining residential land supply and the
timeline in which this land will remain undeveloped.
5.2 Tillsonburg Land Inventory
Based on updated development applications to the end of 2021, planning is
estimating that the remaining land inventory is approximately 25 years.
However, this is not taken into account the higher levels of growth being
experienced in recent years. From an industrial perspective there does appear
to be a need for additional industrial land within the planning horizon and this
does not take into account current applications for which building permits have
not been issued.
5.3 Tillsonburg Boundary Lands
Oxford County planning provided an overview of the constraints for potential
lands including environmental and agricultural.
5.4 Boundary Service Review
The Engineering Department prepared a study to assess the current
infrastructure at the limits of the Town of Tillsonburg boundary along with an
assessment of infrastructure at the Town limits.
Resolution #3
Moved by: Jesse Goossens
Seconded by: Cedric Tomico
THAT the Boundary Adjustment Committee request that Council retain a consultant
to review the existing 2020 Population, Household and Employment Forecasts and
Employment Lands Study versus current growth/development applications and
provide the information to Town Council and County for consideration in the 2023
county population household, employment lands forecast.
AND THAT the consultant also be retained to support the town of Tillsonburg in their
review of the future Population, Household and Employment Forecasts and
Employment Lands Study.
CARRIED
